At the school I work at, there are two boys called Fox and Tygar (prn Tiger).

I was talking to a girl in class and it became about the name Iley, (eye-lee) like Miley without M.


Any thoughts or comments on these names?

Ditto, yaz!

I wouldn't use them myself.
X names generally don't appeal to me much, especially those nickname/celebrity-ish ones.
They are cute, some of them at least, but they work as nicknames. (Fox could be for -say- forrest?)
Tygar just looks mispelled.

As for Iley, the spelling doesn't look like a name at all to me :) but I'm growing fonder of Isla, which I'm beginning to love!!

I see Tygar and want to say "tie-gar", instead of "Tiger". Not that Tiger is much better as a name...

Fox could maybe, just maybe be ok as a middle name for the right kid.

Iley? Bleh. It doesn't look like a name. I'm not a huge fan of the name "Miley" or for that matter, a lot of the other "_iley" names. Isla is pretty though.

I really like Iley!!! I think it is so cute. I found the name Eilah (eye-luh) on a site and I really like it as well. It's a good variation on the more popular Isla. As far as Fox and Tygar...they sound more like characters in a book.

I know a guy named Fox, so I dont mind the name lol.

Tyger.... definately not my style.

Iley, I dont care for it, sorry! But strangely enough, I've been liking Isla too XD I always hated it before, but recently I started liking it XP
